- Description
- Distilled in 1976 and bottled in 2000 as part of the first Ardbeg Committee releases, this single-cask expression was matured in sherry wood and bottled at 55% ABV. The quarter-century in sherry cask has transformed classic Ardbeg peat into something richer and more sophisticated—expect layers of dried fruit, baking spice, and subtle smoke balanced by the wood's warmth and complexity. The finish is long, warming, and intriguingly balanced between peat and fruit. A landmark bottling for serious collectors, marking Ardbeg's resurgence as a quality producer.
